Hmmmm... look to setting  something like in your own .vimrc file

     set matchpairs=(:),{:},[:],<:>

You may wish to wrap this inside a test for syntax
    syn=html
or some such hook to keep the change only for html files.

More  '%' stuff is setup in matchit.
In vim type 

   :help matchit

I see this hint in /usr/share/vim/vim62/macros/matchit.txt 

    "In Vim, as in plain vi, the percent key, |%|, jumps the cursor from a
    brace, bracket, or paren to its match.  This can be configured with
    the 'matchpairs' option.  The matchit plugin extends this in several
    ways:..."

AND....
    "Examples:
        Suppose you

                :let b:match_words = '<:>,<tag>:</tag>'
 
       and hit "%" with the cursor on or before the "<" in "a <tag> is
       born".  The pattern '<' comes first, so it is preferred over
       '<tag>', which also matches.  If the cursor is on the "t",
       however, then '<tag>' is preferred, because this matches a bit
       of text containing the cursor.  If the two groups of patterns
       were reversed then '<' would never be preferred.
